What is the name of your state? missouri Bought a car and about 5 months later, my car was sitting under my carport for 2 days when it suddenly caught fire at 4 am. I didn't get any satisfaction from the dealer. they wanted to sell me another car for more money and add half the price of the other car on the car note as they said it was half my fault. I later learned that the car had a recall and I called the dealer and they said they don't have anything to do with checking out recalls on cars they sell. Am I entitled to have my down payment refunded?

Based on the limited information you provided: No.

I forgot to mention I did have a 6 month warranty and the fire marshall determined it was the car and not arson.

Unless the warranty covered fire damage, none of the above is relevent to your situation.
